It was especially annoying when you put it in bold.
OMG!! SOMEONE CALL THE ****ING SPELLING POLICE

'thier' looks better to me because of the rule 'i' before 'e' except after 'c'. Exceptions to this are words like weird.

I'm so sorry my spelling mistakes seem to have distracted you from my completely valid points I never said I was perfect. Hell, even said its impossible to even attain such a thing. We're only human afterall. The least you can do is to find something that is actually on topic rather than attack me for a simple mistake.

And the backup thing isn't easier or convienent. It just lets lazy managers be even lazier. That's not convience. This is why Graal has so many problems with playerworlds is because of irresponsible and lazy managers and staff. They want everything done for them that is really thier job and task to do, not GO's. Seriously, you people must be smoking crack or something to come up with these ridiculous ideas. To solve these kinds of problems you have to go to the very root which happens to be the manager. When you give playerworlds to people who have no clue how to actually handle things that's when these problems begin and it will only stop when competent managers are put in place.

Really, Graal needs an extensive screening process for all its players, not just managers No one is certainly perfect, but something like this would tremendously cut down on the number of problems Graal has all together. ::sigh:: Too bad that will never happen. Same thing goes for manager screenings and evaluations. Things like that shouldn't even have to be done, but it really needs to considering the behavior of many players.

G_yoshi.... I'm not even going to try to talk to you. All you want to do is turn this into an arguement for some reason. It doesn't matter what you think, having a server backup _is_ a good idea. You'll probabbly quote this and say stuff like "irrelavant", "you don't listen to me", or some other stuff to make you sound intelligent, when all you are actually doing is making your self out to be a *******.

*applaudes*

Good job.
Well, you weren't and still aren't listening to me. I never said backuping up a playerworld was a bad idea, just the method you came up with. It gives managers an excuse to avoid thier responsibilities. Being a playerworld manager is more than just a spiffy RC with all rights set to active. I'm not trying to act intelligent anyway. I'm just applying common sense and logic together. Its not as hard as it sounds, honest. I know very well how people behave from just simple observations and I know well enough that something like this is not a good idea. The managers only need rely on GO for technical support not as a 'parent'. That doesn't teach them to take resposibility for thier actions let alone even teach them to use common sense. All they have to do, then, is go crying to Stefan or unixmad until they get what they want. In the end, that has a negative effect on the community because there are people dodging and playing outside the rules.

Caveat Emptor(sp?) comes to mind. For those who don't know what that means it means "buyer beware" and its meant to warn consumers of any sort of possible danger when making strange purchases. This also means its the consumer's responsiblity to know first hand what he or she is getting into when making such a purchase. If they don't its probably not a good idea to buy whatever it is they want.
